this article will address the extension of super efficiency method to rank the non-extreme efficient decision making units. many methodologies have introduced methods that can rank efficient units, amongst which, the super efficiency method due to its ability to provide meaningful geometrical as well as economic analyses has a significant place. but the common problem with all the super efficie...

Testifying to more than ten years of academic and practical developments, this tutorial attempts to provide a succinct yet unified view of the robust multi-stage decision making framework. In particular, the reader should better understand: (1) the distinction between static versus fully or partially adjustable decisions; (2) the root of tractability issues; (3) the connection to robust dynamic...

on account of the existence of uncertainty, dea occasionally faces the situation of imprecise data, especially when a set of dmus include missing data, ordinal data, interval data, stochastic data, or fuzzy data. therefore, how to evaluate the efficiency of a set of dmus in interval environments is a problem worth studying. in this paper, we discussed the new method for evaluation and ranking i...

since data envelopment analysis (dea) introduced in 1970s, it has been widely applied to measure the efficiency of a wide variety of production and operation systems. recently dea has been extended to examine the efficiency of decision making units (dmus) with two-stage network structures or processes, where the outputs from the first stage are intermediate measures that make up the inputs of t...
